Often, I come across a photograph here in the Resource Center which instantly brings a smile to my face. Take a look at this picture of Minnie in a vintage guest room at Disney’s Polynesian Resort from 1985 I recently found while doing some research.
As I look at this photo, I can’t help but wonder who Minnie is talking to and what their discussion is about. Is she ordering room service? Getting directions to a Park? Talking to Mickey? I guess I’ll never know.
But it got me thinking, so I challenged a few Cast Member friends to come up with captions for the photo. Here are some of my favorites they sent. Think you have a better one? Share it with me below.
“Hello, Reservations? I am ready to book my Aulani vacation.” (Juliet, Marketing)
“You say that there’s no listing yet for either Lilo or Stitch? Could you keep trying please?” (Michael, Epcot)
“Thanks, Clara Belle, I love your moo-moo, too!” (Patrick, Merchandise)
“Aloha! What time are hula lessons in the lobby?” (Rose, WDW Library & Research Center)

“Hello, I’m still trying to see if you have any dinner reservations for 2 at ‘Ohana, I’ve been calling for about 180 days now.”

“Sure, Mickey! I would love to go to the Spirit of Aloha Dinner Show with you!!”

Hi, Mickey! I’m dressed and ready for the luau. What time are you picking me up?

“I’d like to be moved to a different room. This isn’t what it looked like in the pictures on the website!”

“No, no, I didn’t ask if there was a ‘mini-bar’ in my room…”

“Hello. What time is the 3 o’clock parade at Magic Kingdom?”
(On a side note, I’m so glad Minnie got a facelift between then and now. She looks much better.)

Operator, get me the police! Maleficent stole my purse again! And I think she had help from Jafar or Anastasia!

Here are mine…
A. “Thanks, Gift Shop Manager, for the moo moo you sent up; however, I wanted it in red with blue flowers”
B. (On hold with room service, and thinking “I hope they have hog head cheese”)
C. “Ok… 5-5-…SNAP! Why do pens run out of ink when you take down a number!”

“No, Mickey isn’t in the rom right now. He’s at the Waikolohe Valley right now. Can I take a message?”

Press 1 for English, 2 for Spanish… What do I press for mouse squeak?
